For the reduction of $NO^-_3$ ion in an aqueous solution $E^\circ$ is
$+ \,0.96\, V$. Values of $E^\circ$ for some metal ions are given below
$\, V^{2+}(aq)+2e^- \longrightarrow V;\, \, \, \, \, E^\circ = -1.19\, Vtt$
$\, Fe^{3+}(aq)+3e^- \longrightarrow Fe;\, \, \, \, \, E^\circ = -0.04 V$
$ Au^{3+}(aq)+3e^- \longrightarrow Au;\, \, \, \, \, E^\circ = +1.40\, V$
$ Hg^{2+}(aq)+2e^- \longrightarrow Hg;\, \, \, \, \, E^\circ = +0.86 V$
The pair(s) of metals that is/are oxidised by $NO^-_3$ in aqueous solution is (are)
